Day 33 Reconciliation Fasting

New Day, New Opportunity

Today’s Scripture: Mathew 12:13-15

¹³Then He said to the man, "Stretch out your hand!" He stretched it out, and it was restored to normal, like the other. 

 ¹⁴But the Pharisees went out and conspired against Him, as to how they might destroy Him. 

 ¹⁵But Jesus, aware of this, withdrew from there. Many followed Him, and He healed them all.

Today’s Scripture Message:

Be revived.  When you are born again, you are a new person in Christ– mind, body & spirit. Your life restored to a new, better existence, fully guided and supported by our Heavenly father.  There will be those who do not understand the change in you and do all they can to pull you back, don’t allow it, know you are on track and remain there.  Your life is what is ahead of you in the next second, next minute, next hour, next day – what is behind you is done, good-bad-indifferent, it’s done. You can never change the past, but you can always affect the future.  You are instructed and if your guidance is to remove yourself from a negative situation, prepare and move. If your instruction is to advise, let your voice be heard.  If you are told to use what you have in blessing to someone else, be that blessing. In your re-birth you are healed; your life witness to the grace and glory of God, through Jesus Christ our Lord. It will inspire in others testament to the presence of our Father within you.

Thought for the Day:

“To get up each morning with the resolve to be happy... is to set our own conditions to the events of each day. To do this is to condition circumstances instead of being conditioned by them.” - Ralph Waldo Trine

Goal for the Day:

Do your part, Do it in joy, Get it done.

(From Pastor Gregory Dickow’s – Fast  From Wrong Thinking)

Today we’re fasting from the thought that says: “Life is passing me by.” And the thoughts that go with that such as: “I’ve missed my best opportunities.”

Let's CHANGE IT TODAY:

1. Think favor. Psalm 5:12 says God surrounds you with favor as a shield. Expect open doors. (Rev. 3:8) Jesus promised open doors.

2. God restores missed opportunities. (Joel 2:25) God restores the YEARS--years of missed opportunities are COMING BACK TO YOU!

3. God saves the best for last!  Don’t for a moment give into the thought that your best is over. (John 2:10)

4. Stop looking back. (It hardens you from going forward: Genesis 19:26).  Forget the missed chances. Look for the next ones.

5. Be diligent. “Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.” -- Thomas A. Edison

6. EVERYTHING God is involved with gets better & better. (Proverbs 4:18, 2 Corinthians 3:17-18, Hebrews 8:6)

7. You HAVE the life! (1 John 5:12) It CAN’T pass you by!

THINK IT & SAY IT:

I expect favor today; and open doors are coming to me. Opportunities are available to me all the time, and God is restoring whatever I’ve missed. He saves the best for last, and my life is on the rise—getting better and better, until His return, in Jesus’ Name!
